The Finish Line New York ELLs: Bilingual Common Core workbook is essential for NYSESLAT test takers. Practice lessons meet today's Common Core Learning Standards (CCLS) and the New Language Arts Progressions, and prepare students for the format and item types on the 2016 NYSESLAT. Lessons address the four tested language domains of Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking. Each lesson is created around a central theme that ties to a content area in the classroom. Like the test, the book targets the linguistic demands of grade-level Common Core instruction using Targets of Measurement (ToMs). Academic language is heavily emphasized. Passage types include informational and literary texts that align with the text complexity of the CCLS. Listening, Reading, and Writing are integrated, and Speaking is a dedicated session. A full unit at the end helps transition students to the NYS Common Core ELA Test.
